And it doesn’t matter whether an employer included the same rule in a contract with an employee or not. It means that the unpaid taxes are your employer’s fault. And before paying the taxes by yourself it would be better to reveal has your employer deducted the taxes from your salary or not. 1. If it has done (the deduction) you have not to pay any taxes, penalties and fines. 2. If it has not done you have to pay taxes and penalties but not fines, because this situation happened due to your employer’s fault. P.S. In Russian tax system we have not only penalties but also fines. The penalties a taxpayer (or a tax agent) must pay if he used (saved in his ownership) taxes instead of paying them in budget. The fines a taxpayer must pay if there is his fault.

I worked more then 200 days per year. My employment contract stated that my employer would pay all my Russian taxes. I was recintly informed that my Russian taxes were not paid. If I volunteer to pay the Russian taxes,am I responsible for paing the penalty for the unpaid taxes? Regards, Barny Rak I worked in Russia from Jan.2006 to Oct.2009.
